I hope other tribes can also get appointments in the east because they aren't just accommodating

Accommodating Kee u dia...

This country will never grow if we put tribal sentiments in all we do.

Let the right man do the job irrespective of where he's from.

Naija ll be great again

If it's UNN....... Future impossible tense for a non igbo. It was war before an akwaibom company was allowed to open a bus park in enugun, the government had to intervene.They will always cry of tribalism but they practice it more. When you confront them, they say they are the smartest set of people.... They see other people that are liberal as stupid

Iggbo fool

Iggbo fool

Very stupid you!
What do you mean by "not accommodating"?
You wanted to buy a land there and they refused even though you have the money?
You wanted to erect a factory and they said no?
They refused to rent you a house because you are not igbo?
How are they not accomodating really?

You seat in your region comfortably, making others who travel to other regions to seek for better opportunities look silly for doing so..
Then, in moments like this, you start accusing others of not being accomodating for not appointing your type! Do you know how many years the man has invested in Jos?
How are we going to accommodate you when you can't even stand the heat of the competition?

Betta...heard some weeks baCk from some students that the CabaL in Abuja wanted imposing one FuLani Man like that from Katsina aS V.C, but the Students reSisted

Go and seat down!
Adaka Borro was voted in as the students union leader at the same UNN years back, but that wasn't enough for you guys. Rather than seeing the positives, He was more upset with some latent rhetorics that were associated with the campaigns. So much so that he forgot that without the Igbo votes, her wouldn't have won such elections in the first place! So he went to war with his allies from other parts of the country to "fight oppression" and they shot him from the back! Jumpy decisions and the consequences!

Fact is that getting the go ahead to start such businesses in the east is a tug of war because many business men are also interested. Some will go behind the back to bribe. Some will call up all their friends in power that can help. If you are interested, jump in and outflank them! If an Imo state person wanted such permit, he will go through the same hassles. The difference is that he will understand how he was outplayed. But you guys from the minorities will conviniently see it differently as usual..

Our funny lecturer... Very kind!
